Cons:

Other Comments: I was an AT fan before this. That's one of the reasons why I gave this a chance. I'm even moreso, now.

Pros: Almost as good as the M50, which I absolutely love. Unlike other base heavy headphones, like Beats, this one is clear and very well balance. I wish it would come with a detachable cable. like the M50X, but oh well, for $30, can't ask too much.

Pros: In a side by side comparison. The ATX-M40 sounded clearer and more crisp than Dr.Dre BEATS solo 2. Add the amplifier and the ATX-M40 stole the show.Great fit , not so tight as with the Beats.Could wear them for hours.
